      I generally just run the battery on its last flight to about 3.8volts... which is what storage change would do.. I just cut the flight short 30 seconds..

      Yes, sir! I always put a storage charge on them if they're going to sit more than a night... sometimes I do it even if I'm flying the next day anyway just so the next charge will be quicker. :)

      I always do, as it can be weeks between flights..

      I only fly my batteries down to 3.8v per cell so I just do a flight and its storaged.

      I try to, but more often than not I fly through my timer a little and end up around 3.75... more or less. The primary reason I storage charge so often is because I parallel charge my packs and I like all the cells to be at the same voltage.
